{-# OPTIONS_GHC -ddump-splices #-}
module Bug where

f _ = undefined

[1 of 1] Compiling Bug ( Bug.hs, interpreted )
Bug.hs:(6,3)-(8,6): Splicing declarations
[d| f :: forall a. (Show a => a) -> a
f _ = undefined |]
======>
f :: forall a. Show a => a -> a
f _ = undefined
Notice that f's type signature is pretty-printed as forall a. Show a => a -> a, which is just wrong. Patch incoming.
